Database Access is made available through the use of the Record component, which utilizes PHP's PDO data-access library. This section provides an overview of the Record component and its common uses.

Data Management
Select
This section describes common select statements. Follow each example with ->fetch() to retrieve 1 record, or ->fetchAll() to retrieve all records, or follow with ->get() to retrieve the SQL for that statement. You may also echo $this->Record to print a query without resetting the query.
All
// Produces SELECT * FROM `clients` $this->Record->select()->from("clients");
Tuples
// Produces SELECT `id`,`id_code`,`user_id` FROM `clients` $this->Record->select(array("id","id_code","user_id"))->from("clients");
Tuple Aliasing
// Produces SELECT `id`,`id_code` AS `key`,`user_id` FROM `clients` $this->Record->select(array("id","id_code"=>"key","user_id"))->from("clients"); // Produces SELECT `id`, 'customer' AS `type` FROM `clients` $this->Record->select(array("id"))->select(array('\'customer\''=> "type"), false)->from("clients");
Limit
// Produces SELECT * FROM `clients` LIMIT 20, 10 $this->Record->select()->from("clients")->limit(10, 20);

// Produces SELECT * FROM `clients` WHERE `clients`.`id`='15' $this->Record->select()->from("clients")->where("clients.id", "=", 15);
And Where
// Produces SELECT * FROM `clients` WHERE `user_id`='15' AND `id_code`='USR15' $this->Record->select()->from("clients")->where("user_id", "=", 15)->where("id_code", "=", "USR15");

Subqueries
All subqueries start first with the subquery. The idea is to construct the query from the inside out, and as each layer is added the subquery becomes part of the parent query.
$client_id = 12; // Produces SELECT `clients`.*, `contacts`.* FROM `clients` INNER JOIN `contacts` ON `contacts`.`client_id`=`clients`.`id` WHERE `clients`.`id`='12' AND `contacts`.`user_id`=`clients`.`user_id` $sub_query_record = new Record(); $sub_query_record->select(array("clients.*","contacts.*"))->from("clients")-> innerJoin("contacts", "contacts.client_id", "=", "clients.id", false)-> where("clients.id", "=", $client_id)-> where("contacts.user_id", "=", "clients.user_id", false); // Build the SQL for the sub_query $sub_query_sql = $sub_query_record->get(); // Fetch any values set from the subquery $values = $sub_query_record->values;
Join on Subquery
// Produces SELECT `users`.* FROM `users` INNER JOIN (SELECT `clients`.*, `contacts`.* FROM // `clients` INNER JOIN `contacts` ON `contacts`.`client_id`=`clients`.`id` WHERE `clients`.`id`='12' AND `contacts`.`user_id`=`clients`.`user_id`) // AS `temp` ON `temp`.`user_id`=`users`.`id` $this->Record->select("users.*")->appendValues($values)->from("users")->innerJoin(array($sub_query_sql=>"temp"), "temp.user_id", "=", "users.id", false);
Subquery as a Tuple
// Produces SELECT `temp`.`id` FROM (SELECT `clients`.*, `contacts`.* FROM // `clients` INNER JOIN `contacts` ON `contacts`.`client_id`=`clients`.`id` WHERE `clients`.`id`='12' AND `contacts`.`user_id`=`clients`.`user_id`) // AS `temp` WHERE `temp`.`id`='125' $this->Record->select("temp.id")->appendValues($values)->from(array($sub_query_sql=>"temp"))->where("temp.id","=",125);
Subquery as a Column
// Produces SELECT `clients`.`id`, (SELECT `clients`.*, `contacts`.* FROM `clients` INNER JOIN `contacts` ON `contacts`.`client_id`=`clients`.`id` // WHERE `clients`.`id`='12' AND `contacts`.`user_id`=`clients`.`user_id`) AS `temp` FROM `clients` WHERE `clients`.`id`='125' $this->Record->select("clients.id")->appendValues($values)->select(array("(" . $sub_query_sql . ")"=>"temp"), false)->from("clients")->where("clients.id","=",125);
Where not in Subquery
// Produces SELECT * FROM `clients` WHERE `id` NOT IN (SELECT `clients`.*, `contacts`.* FROM `clients` INNER JOIN // `contacts` ON `contacts`.`client_id`=`clients`.`id` WHERE `clients`.`id`='12' AND `contacts`.`user_id`=`clients`.`user_id`) $this->Record->select()->from("clients")->appendValues($values)->where("id", "notin", array($sub_query_sql), false);

Table Management
Create
// Executes CREATE TABLE `feed_reader_feeds` ( // `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, // `url` varchar(255) NOT NULL, // `updated` datetime DEFAULT NULL, // PRIMARY KEY (`id`), // UNIQUE KEY `url` (`url`) // ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci $this->Record-> setField("id", array('type' => "int",'size' => 10,'unsigned' => true,'auto_increment' => true))-> setField("url", array('type' => "varchar", 'size' => 255))-> setField("updated", array('type' => "datetime", 'is_null' => true, 'default' => null))-> setKey(array("id"), "primary")-> setKey(array("url"), "unique")-> create("feed_reader_feeds");
Alter
// Executes ALTER TABLE `feed_reader_feeds` // ADD `title` varchar(255) NOT NULL, // DROP UNIQUE KEY `url` $this->Record-> setField("title", array('type' => "varchar", 'size' => 255))-> setKey(array("url"), "unique", null, false)-> alter("feed_reader_feeds");
Truncate
// Executes TRUNCATE TABLE `feed_reader_feeds` $this->Record->truncate("feed_reader_feeds");
Drop
// Executes DROP TABLE `feed_reader_feeds` $this->Record->drop("feed_reader_feeds");
Transactions
Transactions offer a method of executing queries in series, with the ability to roll back to a previous state if an error occurs. Any database error will throw a PDOException.
Transactions must be supported by the database engine
Blesta uses the InnoDB engine for all of its tables, and you are encouraged to do the same. Transactions will fail on database engines that do not support transactions.
Using Transactions
try { // Begin transaction $this->Record->begin(); // Run queries... // Commit queries $this->Record->commit(); } catch (PDOException $e) { // Rollback the queries, error occurred. $this->Record->rollback(); }
